Bare-faced beauty: Jo Yong
by Karen Tee

JO YONG, 48
Brand general manager of Estee Lauder Singapore

 

If you could have make-up on only one facial feature, which would it be?

My eyes because they are the most expressive tools for non-verbal communication.

When, if ever, would you step out of the house without make-up?

When I am running errands on weekends, when I go for casual meals with my family and when I take night flights.

Which facial feature are you most insecure about?

I have sensitive skin that is prone to contact dermatitis so I worry about getting rashes.

What are your make-up must-haves?

Mascara. Think of it as a little black dress that every woman must own. It dresses up bare lashes and opens up your eyes. My favourite is Estee Lauder's Double Wear mascara.

My other essentials are the long-wearing Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick and Signature Silky Powder Blush.

What is your secret to beautiful skin?

Cleansing is important because it not only removes dirt and grime but also preps your skin for your skincare regimen.

In the morning, I use Estee Lauder's Cyber White EX Advanced Performance Brightening Essence, Time Zone Line & Wrinkle Reducing Creme SPF 15 and Re-Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Eye Creme before finishing off with a UV Base and a Double Wear foundation that does not require touch-ups for up to 15 hours.

At night, I use Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex, Time Zone Night Anti-Line/Wrinkle Creme (launching next year) and Advanced Night Repair Eye Recovery Complex.

Complete this sentence: Beauty is... more than skin deep. It is about exuding confidence and style that will create a lasting impression.
